Recruiting studies
- NCT05444452Recruiting
Stent treatment study for blocked heart arteries
This study tests a coronary stent approach for people with significantly blocked heart arteries. It may help by improving blood flow, and it compares treatment in a structured way while monitoring safety and outcomes.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05550077Recruiting
Imaging study for narrowed brain arteries after stroke
This trial uses a detailed eye/brain imaging test (optical coherence tomography) to study people with significantly narrowed brain arteries after certain stroke-like events. It may help researchers better understand and monitor this condition to improve care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05672706Recruiting
Pressure wave test for people with angina
This study looks at how a pressure waveform in the heart’s blood vessels can be analyzed to learn more about angina (chest discomfort from reduced blood flow). You may be asked to undergo specific heart/blood-flow measurements, which could help improve understanding and future care.
HsinchuAges 21 years+ - NCT05218811Recruiting
Cryo treatment with partial kidney surgery for kidney tumors
This study looks at using a cold (cryoablation) treatment along with partial kidney surgery to treat certain kidney tumors. It may help shrink or control the tumor while preserving more healthy kidney tissue.
Miami Lakes, FloridaAges 55–65 - NCT02910180Recruiting
Biobank study of genetic and metabolic data in brain blood vessel disease
This study collects genetic and other health information from people with brain blood vessel (cerebrovascular) problems. It aims to help researchers understand causes and patterns that could lead to better care in the future.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05718622Recruiting
EECP for people with stable first stroke and blocked artery
This study looks at whether EECP (a non-surgical therapy that helps blood flow) improves outcomes in people who recently had their first ischemic stroke and have a narrowed or blocked artery. It also aims to predict who may benefit most based on health data.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–80 - NCT05044208Recruiting
Test heart ultrasound and monitoring clues for atrial fibrillation
This study looks at heart ultrasound pictures and heart-rhythm recordings to predict who may develop atrial fibrillation (AF) after a stroke or TIA. If you qualify, your results may help doctors better spot people at higher risk earlier.
TullnAges 18 years+ - NCT05644314Recruiting
Drug-coated stent for narrowed vertebral arteries
This trial studies whether a drug-coated stent placed in a narrowed vertebral artery can improve outcomes for people with artery narrowing from plaque. It also looks at how safe the stent is, since it requires specific blood-thinning medicines around the procedure.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05853796Recruiting
Studying stroke warning signs in young adults
This observational study follows people ages 18–50 who had a first TIA (“mini-stroke”) or an acute ischemic stroke to better understand what happens after the event. It may help improve future care by tracking symptoms, imaging findings, and recovery over time.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18–50 - NCT04862507Recruiting
Thrombectomy treatment for severe stroke with low ASPECTS
This trial studies an approach for removing a blockage using thrombectomy in people with an acute ischemic stroke that shows a low ASPECTS score. It may help restore blood flow in strokes that have significant early changes on brain imaging.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT05878002Recruiting
Tests thinking, movement, and sleep after clot removal stroke
This study looks at thinking skills, body movement, and sleep patterns in adults after a specific type of stroke treated with a clot-removing procedure. It may help doctors better understand what changes happen after treatment and how to measure them.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT05244629Recruiting
Compare two stents for chronic artery-related gut pain
This trial tests whether an uncovered stent or a covered stent works better for treating chronic mesenteric ischemia (reduced blood flow to the intestines from artery narrowing). It’s meant for adults with symptoms and scans showing significant narrowing in a specific gut artery.
København ØAges 18 years+ - NCT05922540Recruiting
Study of ischemic stroke to improve patient care
This study looks at people who have had an ischemic stroke (a type caused by a blocked blood vessel). It is collecting information over time to better understand care needs and follow-up after stroke.
HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05961748Recruiting
Brain and heart illness registry for adults in China
This study is a registry that collects health information from adults who have certain new heart and/or brain conditions. It may help researchers understand how these problems occur together and improve future care planning.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06094569Recruiting
Screening for stroke in the back of the brain
This study uses MRI scans to find strokes caused by blockages in the arteries at the back of the brain. It may help doctors learn more about these strokes and how to better care for people who have them.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06085612Recruiting
How carotid artery blockage affects blood flow in the retina
This trial examines how a narrowing of the main neck artery (carotid stenosis) impacts blood flow in the retina using a special eye test called automated retinal oximetry. The goal is to better understand how this blockage affects eye health.
OlomoucAges 18 years+ - NCT06131385Recruiting
Tracking IV clot-busting treatment for stroke in China
This study is tracking patients in southwestern China who have had an acute ischemic stroke and received a clot-busting medicine through an IV. It aims to learn more about how well this treatment works and how it is used in real-world settings.
LuzhouAges Any age - NCT04265040Recruiting
Heart muscle disease registry for non-ischemic conditions
This trial is a registry, meaning it collects health information to help doctors study heart muscle diseases and plan future cardiovascular studies. You may be able to join if you have a non-ischemic cardiomyopathy such as dilated cardiomyopathy, certain forms of thick heart muscle, non-compaction, or arrhythmogenic right-sided disease.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18–80 - NCT04916197RecruitingPhase 4
Dexmedetomidine sedation after stroke clot removal
This Phase 4 study tests whether using a specific calming medicine (dexmedetomidine) for a longer period after a successful clot-removal procedure helps people do better in the long term. It may help improve outcomes after ischemic stroke where the clot is successfully treated.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04942041Recruiting
Thrombectomy for large stroke blockages at low-volume centers
This study tests whether using a procedure called mechanical thrombectomy at smaller stroke centers can improve outcomes after a large-vessel stroke. It may help people who have a major artery blockage get timely treatment, with measured effects on complications and survival.
Kristiansand, AgderAges 18–100 - NCT06014723Recruiting
Balloon angioplasty for recent minor stroke or TIA
This study tests a balloon procedure to open a narrowed artery in the brain to prevent further strokes. It is for people who recently had a mild stroke or high-risk TIA from a significant blockage.
Changchun, JilinAges 30–80 - NCT04451551Recruiting
PET/CT scan study for reduced blood flow in the heart
This study uses a special PET/CT scan that shows how well blood reaches your heart muscle. It may help doctors better assess suspected or known reduced blood flow (ischemic heart disease).
Aarhus, Aarhus NAges 18 years+ - NCT06236750Recruiting
Testing a human tissue wound covering for hard-to-heal ulcers
This study is testing a special wound covering made from donated human tissue (amnion/chorion membrane) to see if it helps heal stubborn diabetic foot ulcers or venous leg ulcers that haven't improved with standard care. The covering is placed on the wound to help it heal.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ischemic?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 811 recruiting ischemic studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a ischemic trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a ischemic trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
